So why the time travel? #Normcore. No, really. While one aspect of fashion's most beloved-and-hated trend is firmly rooted in the mainstream logos popularized in the '90s, it all goes back to the idea of casual clothing that is understated and blends in, which is what the majority of '70s folks wore. (See Jane Birkin in a white tee and jeans pictured above.)

The look is more Mariel Hemingway in "Manhattan" than Bianca Jagger at Studio 54, which makes it easier to adapt for today. All you need to try it out are some luxurious basics in relaxed silhouettes – just be sure not to go overboard. Pair your flares with a simple button down and your fringed boots with a minimalist top. And, of course, if you need any additional inspo, you can shop our '70s-inspired picks by clicking through the gallery.
